The result should stahd as a bgacon'light to old and young that even indiscretion towards a .mjinor is an offense in which the law gives our youth the protection necessary. It is noteworthy that one’s station in society shall not be a hiiiderance to enforcement of justice The lesson to all is a record proving how easy it is to over­ step our better judgment under ,any circumstance and by such act fall within the clutches o f the law. Juvepiie laws are for the protection o f our youth. Our elders are supposed to know* right from wrong under ahy circumstance. When' a repre sentative of one of our religious denominational institutions ap pears in open court and testifies that the accused had been con­ sidered as head o f that institution, it is well •to-call, attention as to how easy it is to walk backwards from fame and glory on one’s f ellow citizens. . _ No defense has been offered fro what the law and admis­ sion have decreed. This much can be said that a medical exam­ ination conducted with the Consent of the officers of the law, showed-no actual harm, physical or otherwise, Acts tending to what appeared to intent are all within the meaning of the law and the penalty must be paid.'. * It is the last chapter and an object lesson to youth"and the pitfalls that lie in the pathway o f life. Your schools and yotn church have pointed the way to avoid them. You are your mas­ ter of your own destiny.. i H A R O LD , HOW C A N YO U ? A new high for official stupidity must have been reached recently when the department o f ^interior lent its name to a , campaign designed to put a fish pond on every American farm. This department of the newspaper hesitates to make any - suggestion to its boss who is trying to determine what is import- and what not Important to the war effort, but we hope we shah riot be guilty of Hessmajestey if we express the opinion that the employes o f the department of interior who proposes a fisi pond fo r every farm and prepares simple workable instruc* , tions for the building and operations of such ponds is hardly making an important contribution to the preservation of the American way o f life. —Cleveland Plain Dealer In view, o f what Harry Hopkins, assistant Pres\dentvhad to say some months ago, “ that the people were too dumb to Understand” , Ickes.might have had in mind a suitable place where the “ suckers that had fallen for the New Deal might want to get out o f public view. m A WARNING TO THE STATES The Council of. State Governments has called upon all state and local governments to begin NOW to prepare for the . economic.shock that will follow the war. .Specifically, it urged that they limit their expenditures to essential war activities and necessary governmental functions. ' ' The states must carry their share of the postwar readjust­ ment load or the federal government will. There is a higher right than states 'rights—that of the' people to a chance to earn a living, The inability of the states to insure that right during the panic-depression o f the ’30s caused the government to assume obligations previously regarded as belonging solely to the several states.1 . There will be more o f that in the postwar period if the states are not ready to discharge their fu ll obligations. Time for them to get ready is now. — Detroit Free Press. The views expressed ab.ove as a,warning to the .states has been ouv views of what agriculture faces in the future if some­ thing different than our present happy-go-lucky plans are hot changed towards looking to the future when the crash follows the war. All this hot air coming from bureaucrats means noth­ ing towards the stability o f the nation. Most of .them have never held jobs of any kind before and most of the others have been one hundred per cent failures at what ever they have utt dsrfcflkfttii ^ It has been our theory that agriculture should be on par with industry -and labor In sharing war profits. The idea of paying farm subsidities out q J income tax money that the farmer is to be called upon to pay to. the government and also pay the in­ creased price of all that he must purchase, leaves him on a dif­ ferent basis when the economic crash comes following the war — and it is as certain as the sun follows the day.

In a . letter to. state and county war boards urging the conserva­ tion o f farm transportation facilities, Secretary of Agriculture Claude R, Wickard said: “ The department is glad to co-operate in Uiis program to the fullest extent, realizing that attainment o f agricultural produc­ tion goals will be meaningless-un­ less there is assurance -that essen­ tial farm products, when ready for market, can quickly be brought to processing, storage or consumption centers.” > / Joseph B.

The light,of the world is Jesus.” ' How. precious wag the ftiuth that ' thus flooded our .'souls.' JeguS'.Is the light.

But that is only one of the-great thoughts' around which ,our- lesson centers. As Jesus "here repeals Himself as divine, we consider four simple - words, ^ each ’fraught with rich meaning. I. Light (v. 12): The text says: “ Then spake Jesus," When? Just after He had silenced the hypocritical, accusers of a woman taken in sin, and had •spoken the word -o f peace to her r troubled soul. She was to “ go and sin no m ore" because she bad met Him*who is the light o f the world. They that follow Him “ shall not walk in darkness” ; they ‘are the children o f light, they have the very light o f life shining in their hearts and lives. Not only does Jesus light the be­ liever’s heart, but this light shines into all the dark corn ers-of this . wicked world, exposing sin and hypocrisy,- and showing the way back to God. r ■ II. Salvation (w . 25-30). “ Who art thou?” That is the ques­ tion every man must ask and an­ swer as he considers Jesus. [.Even neglect is an answer—a rejection. The answer o f Christ in these verses goes to .the very heart o f the matter, for He takes the people right to the cross o f Calvary. When they had crucified Him, they would know. Did not the centurion say: “ Truly this was the Son o f God” (Matt. -27:54)? It is true today that no man knows Christ until he knows Him as the .crucified Saviour. Teacher, Exam­ ple, Guide—all these He is—but they are not enough, for we sinners need a Saviour. May many today follow the example of,verse 30. III. Freedom (w . 31-36). • Free! Four letters, but what a depth o f meaning! Chains have'fall- en off, prison doors are open. The one who was bound is free. But here we are concerned with an even more important liberty, the freedom o f the soul. Many .there are who boast o f their independence but who are naught ” but slaves. Jesus said: “ Whosoever commit- teth sin is the servant o f sin” (v. 34), not its master, , How shall they be freed? Note three things in these verses: . ; (1) A Condition, “ I f ye continue in my Word/? This means not only a profession of faith, but a daily ap­ propriation and realization o f His truth in life. (2) A promise, “ Ye shall know the truth,” The philosophies o f men profess to be a seeking after truth, but how few there are who look to the one place where it can be found —in-Jesus Christ. (3) A result, “ The truth shall make you free.” Truth always seta free. Men are enslaved because, . as in seme foreign landpflhey have not had the opportunity to learn the truth or because they hgv&jceftected it. / Men profess to seely truth In their research and in the process o f edu­ cation, but with&ut Christ they can­ not have real truth. Educational systenis which rule Him out are deficient and lead to bondage rather than freedom. IV . Eternity (vv. 56-59), Taking- up their statemerit that they Were Abraham’s children (see w . 33, 37), Jesus enters into the sharpest controversy with the un­ b e liev in g Jews of His entire earthly •bm isfry^y They were claim ing kin­ ship with a great man o f faith who In h is-day had looked forward to the com ing o f Christ (v. 56), Now He was here, and instead o f receiv­ ing Him as their Messiah they were ready to kill Him, Not only did they claim Abraham as father, but also God. Jesus told them that in their sin and unbelief they were o f ^ their “ father the devil.” ‘ It is possible, then, to bs very religious, to follow the iradh tions Of one’ s fathers, and yet to be children of the devil. All this led up to their sharp re­ buke in verse 57, which denied to Christ anything but an earthly ex­ istence and which led Him to the statement o f His eternity.
